Chapter 108: The Direction of the Plot
"Presumably this is Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden, I learned that Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden had something to summon, and I also put down my official business to go, but I didn't expect it to be Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden, what a sin!"
The city lord greeted the saintess as soon as possible, but looking at Yanni's appearance, he knew that it was the first time they had met.
Unexpectedly, she was recognized at once, and she was originally going to ask for the guilt, but she was also confused by the other party's polite attitude, and she didn't know how to deal with it for a while.
Just as the city lord was kissing Yan Ni, Wu Jian grabbed the salty pig paw that stretched out towards Yan Ni.
"You should know what we're here for, right?"
"This is"
Being interrupted by Wu Jian like this, the city lord stared at Wu Jian for a while, and then turned to Yanni and asked about Wu Jian's identity.
"Mr. Wu Jian is"
"Bodyguard!"
"I see, I have already understood the purpose of Her Highness the Holy Maiden, but I didn't expect that the captain of my personal guard would commit such a crime without telling me, it is really an unforgivable crime! I have bound him up and am waiting for Her Highness to question him. So don't worry, Mr. Bodyguard."
The city lord put his hand back behind his back and said with squinted eyes. However, he suddenly became aggressive.
"However, if Her Highness cannot prove the guilt of my captain of the guard, what will happen to Her Highness?"
"That village chief can prove it!"
As soon as Yanni's words came out, Wu Jian was speechless again. You said that the bishop said that the mastermind is the city lord, and you still have to prove that the captain of the guard? Why are you thinking normally when you are fighting demons, and you are so easy to be led by the nose when you are against humans?
However, helplessness is helpless, and Wu Jian is also understandable. I'm afraid that the Holy Maiden was cultivated in this way, and she can play the role of a spokesperson when dealing with demons, and she is probably a marionette for the high-level of the Holy Sect. If she had a little more experience, she would naturally understand it with her cleverness. But now, don't talk about doubting other people's arguments, I'm afraid she is only used to following other people's orders.
In order to let her learn a little more, it is best to directly enter the trap of the city lord, but for Wu Jian and them, the current Yanni is also very much in line with them.
Just when the city lord made a gesture of please, and Yan Ni was about to go in, Wu Jian stopped in front of Yan Ni.
"I wonder what else is going on with Mr. Bodyguard? If not, please don't disturb Her Highness. ”
The city lord put on a look of accusing Wu Jian of being ignorant, but Wu Jian's words of not playing cards according to the rules blindfolded him.
"Hit you."
"Huh?"
The city lord was still swirling with the word "ah" in his mouth, and Wu Jian slapped it with the back of one hand. I saw the city lord fly into the air, spinning violently and planting backwards.
Not only was the city lord blinded by Wu Jian's palm, but even the soldiers under him didn't know why, and it took a long time to react. They were not in a hurry to help up the city lord, but pointed their guns at Wu Jian and the others. But before they could do anything, they fell to their knees in full order, and their knees shattered to the ground—this is not a description, their knees were broken. Immediately, there was a mourning at the scene.
"Mr. Wu Jian!"
For Yanni, these soldiers were probably innocent, so seeing the tragic images of the soldiers touched her heart.
"If there is no punishment at all, how can you be worthy of those victims?"
Wu Jianyi waved his hand to stop what Yan Ni wanted to say, walked straight to the city lord who wanted to get up, and stepped on his palm.
"I 'looked' at it, and there were a lot of traps in it. But we don't have time to play with you, and if you admit your mistakes in the first place, you won't have to suffer so much. ”
"Ah~~~~~~~h
Being trampled on the palm of Wu Jian's hand, the city lord let out a slurred scream with his mouth full of blood.
"You! You guy! Do you know who I am? My uncle is the Empire's Minister of Finance! ”
Although the city lord yelled at Wu Jian angrily, his slurred words made Wu Jian even guess what he was talking about.
However, Wu Jian was not in the mood to listen to these unnutritious words, and the most important thing was that they seemed to have caught another big fish. I saw Wu Jianchao say inside the City Lord's Mansion: "Your owner has been caught, do you still plan to stay inside?" ”
No one inside replied, but as if in response to Wu Jian, a large number of soldiers rushed out from inside.
"I'm not looking for you."
Wu Jian said in a deep voice, and he didn't see any movement, the ground, the gate, the front yard, and the soldiers were all lifted. In front of the chaos, the soldiers let out a scream full of energy, but even then there was no other movement inside.
"Hmph, if I don't come out, I can't help you?"
Wu Jian grabbed the void forward, and a figure flew out, but what people didn't expect was that this figure's body changed when he was about to enter. Although there is a difference, that appearance is indeed the magic man!
"Majin !!"
Everyone exclaimed, and it was also at this moment that the demon waved his claws and grabbed Wu Jian. Since the demon man was transforming from a very long distance, this blow made everyone involuntarily pinch a cold sweat for Wu Jian.
However, Wu Jian still maintained his original posture, and somehow, the demon was grabbed by Wu Jian's head and couldn't move.
"Whether you can save a life depends on whether you can give an answer that satisfies me."
Wu Jian lifted the city lord up from the ground, still holding the demon in his other hand, and lifted them side by side.
"I, I don't know what to do! I really don't know what to do! He was sent to me by my uncle, and I really didn't know that he was a demon!! ”
Seeing that such powerful demons were easily caught by Wu Jian, his main heart was broken at once, and he hurriedly confessed inarticulately.
It doesn't look like he's lying, but he still has to be the same as he should be, and ask for the information he should ask.
But in fact, it was sent to him by his uncle, who was the Minister of Finance of the Empire, as he claimed, and it was his uncle who made him do it. From the mouths of him and the demons, it is known that the slave catchers are indeed their organization, and that the finance minister seems to be the top of the organization. It's just that even that demon is just a small character, and he doesn't get any useful information at all.
However, Wu Jian did not forget their main purpose. According to the city lord, among the slaves he collected, if they were beautiful, they would stay and play for a while, and when they got tired of playing, they would be handed over to the slave catcher group to deal with. But he recently handed over a batch of slaves to the slave hunting group, and originally planned to let the demons catch a few more beautiful ones to use, but he didn't expect to meet Wu Jian. Luckily, because there was a particularly beautiful beauty in the last batch who refused to give in, he kept and is now in his lewd room.
Whether that beauty is Xiaoling's sister or not, then we can only look forward to it. As for what the city lord should do, Wu Jian really wanted to break his bones one by one, but this was not suitable for Yanni and Palu to do, not to mention that there were children here. So Wu Jian threw him and the demon into the "Six Realms of Reincarnation", as for what treatment the city lord will have, he can only imagine what life is better than death! Of course, for Yanni and Palu, Wu Jian just guaranteed that the city lord would not die. And for the people who colluded with the demons, they didn't care much, not to mention that they didn't see death with their own eyes, and the six reincarnations that Wu Jian explained were also incomprehensible to them, but they had a lot less real feelings.
In short, after dealing with these things, everyone came to the basement where the city lord confessed. And the people inside can only say that God still has eyes, and it is Xiaoling's sister.
Seeing her sister's appearance, Xiaoling's tears kept falling, and she threw herself into her sister's arms and cried loudly. And Xiao Ling's sister also showed a surprised and weak smile when she saw Xiao Ling, and a pair of lotus arms could only hug Xiao Ling weakly, crying with Xiao Ling.
Sisters should be happy when they get together, even if there are many sufferings, but a few people who can sense the breath of life can't be happy. Although Xiaoling's sister couldn't see any harm from her appearance, she could sense that her time was running out.
"This is"
"Mr. Wu Jian"
Zhao Xin and Yan Ni looked at Wu Jian together, but Wu Jian also knew the specific situation, so he shook his head at them and signaled not to say it for the time being. However, I don't know how many people here can see what they can see, at least Dongfang can see it.
"Let's get out of here first."
Dongfang proposed, and several women also hurriedly drove the men out of the city, helping Xiaoling's sister take care of them before helping them out.
It's just that I don't know what to do about how to settle the Xiaoling sisters. Palu offered to settle them in the temple, but Dongfang suggested taking them with him first.
"Mr. Wu Jian, let's take Xiaoling and Xiaohua together!"
didn't expect Yanni to have such a proposal, and everyone immediately turned their eyes to her, and she was a little embarrassed.
"That, you see, isn't Xiaoling also going to follow us?" Yanni explained a little awkwardly.
Of course, Xiao Ling was also violently opposed when she heard that she was going to leave them behind. In her opinion, only by staying by her brother's side can she feel safe. And Yanni's proposal also thought that Xiaohua's time was running out, and once she died, then Xiaoling would be left alone. At that time, Yanni didn't even dare to think about it. And Yanni believes that no matter how cumbersome it is, Wu Jian can protect them.
After Yanni's proposal, Paru's proposal was only supported by Red Wing. It's just that he also thought that they would encounter a lot of danger next, and he didn't want them to run around. In fact, he also believed that Wu Jian could protect them. So he simply accepted it.
